True and when asked everyone on this board said 25 was the target. Now we lost some commits and missed on some guys and the spin is that 20 is all roses.
Some people really don't want to believe that we got our asses handed to us today. The spin is ridiculous. 0-3 on the big boys plus a decommitment with NO CONTINGENCY PLANS WHATSOEVER. If we had some 3 star guys to grab last minute for depth like usual when we miss on a big guy then it wouldn't be that bad. But nope. We missed out and were caught with our pants down and now our class if 5 spots smaller than Bret said he would get.
Other than the glaring absences of CB and OL in this class, it's still solid. But the finish was akin to swinging at ball 4 in a full count in the bottom of the 9th with the bases loaded. Nobody expects a grand slam, but they don't expect a chokejob either.

A class should be judged a few years down the line rather than by some recruiting service numbers.Alot of things can happen to the highly rated classes over the years to make that class a dud...
I believe in this staff....

Very well said.

No, it's obvious we got spanked today. It's a fact. But there's no point in dwelling on it unless you enjoy being depressed.
A lot of people have moved on, others continue to beat the dead horse.
